What to Know

It will be a battle of North versus South Saturday as the North Texas Mean Green square off against the Texas Southern Tigers at Apogee Stadium at 7:30 p.m. ET.

The night started off rough for North Texas last week, and it ended that way, too. They played a contest they are hoping to forget as they lost a 48-10 blowout to the SMU Mustangs. The Mean Green were in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 31-10. QB Austin Aune had a memorable game, but not in the way you want to be remembered: besides failing to produce a single touchdown, he threw two interceptions with a passing completion percentage of only 48.28%.

Meanwhile, Texas Southern lost to the Prairie View A&M Panthers on the road by a decisive 40-23 margin.

With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better outcome in this one. We'll see which team satisfies their hunger and which team leaves with an empty stomach.
